    As long as I live, the car I want to own the most is an XJ220. One in green, with the grey wheels. It’s one of the most beautiful cars in the world, ever. They still look new. They don’t look like a 90’s car. They’re absolutely achingly beautiful. I have never seen one in the flesh, if I did, I would spend hours admiring its beauty.

      Wouldn't fault you for that, they don't credit their filmmakers.
      Praemio is indeed however a completely separate entity created by the production company, Valkyr. Enjoy!

    This makes me unreasonably happy. I live four blocks from where TWR USA had their shop in Valparaiso, Indiana and I was friends with a number of the team. When they started the Fast Masters series, Tony Dowe invited me to stop by the shop one afternoon. I walked in and my jaw dropped when I saw a row of XJ220's all being prepped for racing! I had only seen them in magazines and figured I would never see one in person, and now I was standing in front of TEN of them!
    I was invited to come down to IRP for Friday practice for several rounds, and I got to ride in the 2-seater "Press car" twice -- once with Davy Jones, and once with Johnny Rutherford. That was an experience I'll never forget. I was really sad when they all went back to England -- I tried to convince them to save money on freight by just letting me drive one home and store it in my garage. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.
    Still one of my favorite sportscars. Ever. Sleek, curvy, breathtakingly beautiful. The XJ220 never looks old.
    Thank you for keeping them alive.

      @andyb1653 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Except unlike the F40 or Stratos, the XJ220 was severely under-appreciated. People were REALLY upset over that V6 swap, even though it was a fantastic engine.

    Haha, love it when you watch something filmed close to home. Been overtaken many times by these guys 'testing' theirs and customers xj220 including that vivid blue xj220s (iassume it's an s variant)
    That little bit of road this is filmed on runs between the villages of Yarnfield and Swynerton near Stone in Staffs. It's only a mile or two long but it's genuinely a fantastic little blast!!!

    I saw the van in Top Gear. I had a dark blue 1/18 scale XJ220 by Mastio, when I was a teen, and absolutely loved it. The XJ220 is as timeless, and beautiful as a E-Type is. It just goes to show what Jaguar can do when they really try. I can easily understand why Jaguar went with 2wd, but they should have kept the V12, or at lest did a turbo V8. Thank you.

    • @andyb1653
      @andyb1653 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I bought so many Maisto and Bburago model cars as a teenager/young adult, I probably could've bought a goddamn REAL XJ220 instead. Had a whole basement showroom full of the buggers.

    • @weallfollowmanutd
      @weallfollowmanutd 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I had a 1/12 scale one from Maestro in green. Wish I took more care of it. Honestly one of the best looking cars of all time. It was so right. Just a shame they marketed it as a v12 and 4wd, because it wasn't actually made worse that way.

      It drives like a Go Kart ! (I drove it in Racegames)
      The Car is very light for it's Size.
      Once had the Luck to watch it parked at a Hotel,I was amazed,didn't even dare to Touch it, astonishing Design.
      I am a Big Car Fan,love the Testarossa,959 ,GT40,but this Car is Something Different.
      My next choice Jaguar would be the Ian Callum MK2 Restomod.

Maybe one day i'll be privileged enough to own one and i'll then definitely be coming here. Even if i never get to own one, i'd still like to visit them just to see these beautiful creations once.

    beautiful,the poor fools who poo pooed this because of the lack of v12 ended up missing out on one of the best "ultra rare" jags of all time.
    the wood body is absolutely stunning and an incredible snap shot of the history of this misunderstood and obviously underappreciated supercar.
    thank you for preserving these for the future car affectionados to be able to appreciate and admire.

    I love the XJ220; she's one of my childhood heroes. Twenty-something years later I continue to display a 1:12 scale silverstone green model in my playroom, probably the same as the one you see at 6.00 minutes in to this video.
    The car's a legend and I think the coolest car Jaguar ever made. It does me good to learn that this car has a preservation group as dedicated as this with so much ready access to original stock, tooling and artefacts.

    Fantastic story. I didn't like the styling when they came out however I have to say now that they have aged incredibly well. I have a feeling that the Mclaren speedtail will go the same way. I remember seeing one of these cordoned off in a Jaguar showroom waiting for its owner. I don't know if anybody has but it would be good to see one as it was destined to be. i.e V12 and 4WD.

    You have to sit in an contemporary Ferrari F40 to understand what I mean by that. Many hyper cars back then had unfinished interiors or just really cheap ones.
    The Jaguar XJ220 was all creamy leather by comparison. As beautiful as the exterior. Simple by today's electronic standard but super clean back then.

  • @Pricklyhedgehog72
    @Pricklyhedgehog72 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    It is still a remarkable looking car, and I think the video is right in the sense that the Jaguar got some bad press. Certainly elements of the interior were lacking in the refinement department, but the real nail in the coffin was the McLaren F1, which not only dwarfed the XJ220, it redefined the supercar segment.

  • @howey935

    I've loved this car ever since it came out in the late 80s. They look so sleek and as though they are going 200mph when standing still. Unfortunately I know I'll never have the chance of even sitting in one as even if I got the chance I don't think I'd be able to get in as I'm disabled and there's no chance or I'd be in excruciating pain.
